I use dailies (not interested in monthly), this in particular: http://www.feelgoodcontacts.com/contact-lenses/focus-dailies-all-day-comfort and don't really want to change brands as this is what I have been wearing.
My optician sells them at £15 for 15 pairs making one pair £1 each.
The above website sells them at about 60p per pair if you buy 90 pairs.
Does anyone know a website where I can buy them cheaper? Been searchng around but been shown higher prices than this so far. Thank you. Btw the reason why I am asking is because I know some opticians do dailies for £10 a onth which works out cheaper, and I have heard of people getting it for an even lower price than that but I can't get them unless I take my prescripton but I feel bad asking my optician because as he'll know why).

I don't have 2 grand but I would consider it once I save up. That will take some time though.Debt free

I used to wer focus dailies but changed to daysoft - they are much cheaper and once you get used to the slightly different packaging they are fine - i wouldn't go back to paying over the odds for 'branded' contact lenses- especially if you read the blurb on the daysoft site (they were the folks that 'invented' contact lenses or something like that!)

I was only looking for ones I'm used to, not really worried about brands, but I read you should stick to what has been recommended to you. I will take a look at the website and see if I can order some.Debt free
